Everything should remember this setting automatically.

Enable regex in "Everything" from the Search menu.
Exit Everything.
The next time you run "Everything", Regex should still be enabled.

You can also enable regex in the Everything.ini file with the following line:
match_regex=1

thanks..

What I was doing was just starting a new one up making a change, starting another new one up.... I see I had to close a window to get it to save it. Makes sense.. and is sensible.. I think the behaviour.. is good.

seriously incredible program by the way.

regex, or Regular Expression is a common search syntax for more advanced searches.
